mckoss / lookups Goto Github PK

This library appears to be exactly what I need, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to use it and which are the minimal dependancies required to build a trie and then run lookups on it. When I try to load /scripts/ptrie-complete.js I get:

ReferenceError: namespace is not defined
    at Object.<anonymous> (/Users/ESL/Desktop/hola/trie-test.js:1:442)
    at Module._compile (module.js:434:26)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:452:10)
    at Module.load (module.js:355:32)
    at Function.Module._load (module.js:310:12)
    at Function.Module.runMain (module.js:475:10)
    at startup (node.js:117:18)
    at node.js:951:3

Weirdly, I get this same error even if I include /scripts/namespace.js before it. It's not obvious to me what namespace.js is...

I would love just a couple lines of code demonstrating how these fils are intended to be used. The index.html file is almost this, but it's currently broken at the moment because it tries to load resources that do not exist anymore.

I'd love to use this library in a project, but there is no license, so I am unsure about what is permissive and what is not.

Can you please update this repo to have a license?

hi mike, thanks for making this. I've found a tough bug. that can be reproduced in the online tool:

brian bruce bryan bryant bryce bryon buddy dejan burton byron caleb calvin carlo carlton carroll cedric cesar cha charle charli chester chri christian christopher chuck clarence clark claude clay clayton damian damien damon daniel danny darin dariu darwin dav davi david dean delbert deni demetriu denni derek derrick desmond deven devin dewayne dewey dexter

then lookup dejan, which should be there.

i tried really hard to debug this. the regular trie finds dejan, but this node gets lost in the pack() method.
cheers

Hi,
This is a really cool library.

But the split regexp in trie.js

words = words.split(/[^a-zA-Z]+/);

IMO is a little bit to strict for eg: german language, where we have öäü ..
It would be nice to have the possibility to overwrite your defaults with a config object, that contains a regexp eg: /[^a-zA-ZöäüÖÄÜ]+/

And there is a console.log which you forgot to comment.

kind regards

Also allow tests to be run in node.js.

Use auto-namespace wrapper to build wrapped build product.

The packedTrie is really useful. However It doesn't support unicode characters
I tried to apply for a French dictionary. But It didn't work.
Can you fix it please.

Many thanks
